anyone experiencing Breakoffs with PP Spectra Braid 50#?
I use 30lb sufix with a fire line leader Blood Not never broke off a fish yet,(Man Upstairs) but have shaken a few a time or to.Power-P- 20lb for my spinner-baits straight no Leader Material.I have my Drag System not folly winched ether.I,ll go through the Jungle If need be.Try tying the Polymer NOT with a SINGLE twist or Double Twist around the Thumb before the original loop and finish.Work,s for me.It depends on what I am doing.The original Fire-line I had Lots of Breaks and Knot slippage.

Will the very-best crankbait... please stand up!
I have to say my favorite is the old school storm baits in blk/purple white belly and bluegill,only have a hand full left though.Now the DT/Series has hooked me good along with old trusty Lightning Shad.

Whats stronger / single blank rod or 2 piece
Never owned one in my life,but know a few good friends that had the joints SPLIT from the power of setting the hook, the weakest leak.Single rods always break 4-6inches from the tip.Now could this be because there drag systems are to tight, along with the wrong lines for the rods you are using.And then what about Braids people love to winch down on the drags as well.What happen to just playing your fish with every thing in tune the way you like it, not the way your Bodies do.There are a few people on here I,m sure that Match their spinning gear up with braid thinking it,s 12lb diameter witch could be 15-20lb in strength.What about the wrong type of rods for the application to which they are using them.

tweaking lures/Bass Attractants
I,m a tweak-er to, and love it.About 9 years ago I started tweaking different bass attractants.Does any one do the same.Believe me when I finally got one of my formulas just right (Crawdad) it was LIGHTS OUT.There is a guest on this Forum that Knows this with his on eyes, but will not reveal this persons.Caught an easy 4-6pound average through the day flipping.O yea I do have some deadly plastics also from tweaking.

Topwater Bites But Bass Not Smashing Lures - Smaller Lures?
I am pretty big on the frog bite myself,any-who I was fishing about two weeks ago with the same problem.I started to treat them like I was bluegill fishing, small mouth bas......To barely even twitching the frog every 1/4 inch with little to no movement and they started to choke the bait with a slurp, wild never seen that in all the years I,ve been fishing.

Whats stronger / single blank rod or 2 piece
I have a few friends that swear a 2 piece is stronger than a single 1 piece rod.Could you all let them know your opinion.THANK YOU. 2 piece or telescopic rods.I told them that anything jointed, or telescopic, will have the tendency to break at these areas.

Bassin and Beer
10, 100 or just2 beers is to much DRIVING anything,Bicycles as well, even your john deer tractor.It does not matter.Charter boats have your party favorites on board, that does not mean the boat will not sink, you,ll be the first to go to the sharks.KEEP drinking it will all catch up to you latter.

Night Fishing Question
If you now the lake running should not be the issue,and way points should get you to your spot.Wile running my partner would hold a spot light to close the distance.Night light,do the same to your rear lite on your transom so the light is to the rear of the boat out of your eyes.

Just curios

Fishing the Filamentous, algea/whats your method of fishing this
Filamentous is a Multi Celled formed into a Matt of long chains or threads.Resembles wet wool,starts at the bottom, then oxygen increases, floating to the surface.LARGE GREEN MATTED,POND SCUM,as some of you anglers might know it as.I personally call it CHEESE.

Fishing the Filamentous, algea/whats your method of fishing this
Yes I understand their is different types of vegetation,(FILAMENTOUS) but the simple question is to HOW you or whom ever would approach and fish this.
-
Gunk
Simple take a Bait net or Mullet net,make a day of it and through it tell you drop.Cleaning out the scum.I,ve done this on several different ponds and some big lake areas as well.Then go back 3days to a week later.I even had parties, cook outs with the guys after cleaning your target area.
-
Fishing the Filamentous, algea/whats your method of fishing this
Yes we are talking about that nasty green stuff everybody hates.And no its not about my personal presentation.It,s about finding out other ways to catch them.Frogs, pining a fluke backwards on your hook with a nail in it.So you all been here a long time fishing to I think.The subject is in plain sight, along with the QUESTION.

Fishing the Filamentous, algea/whats your method of fishing this
I have found out that this could be very productive with a 3/8 spinner bait mounted with a number 7nickle willow blade is quit promising.

Flippin
Flipping has its advantages/pitching as well.Pitching in my book is when you do not want to spook your target.flipping is to shorter targets.Progress from their.The fish could be at bottom, top or even suspended.Pending on the cover you are targeting.You could flip a tree or choose in a split second pitch your bait over to a different target.It,s not as hard as you make it.Kty where the lakes are clear grass is green, and the lay-downs could be dangerous.

Bassin and Beer
I can not function with the ideal of a drunk being in the boat peeing every three minutes.Noise level goes up the natives hide with laughter.YOU have fluid in your body,you now how that makes you feel,SO what about the fluid AROUND YOU,it,s not a Bowl of water you could lift your head out of when you pass OUT.DROWNING is not PRETTY.You can keep your liquid diet to yourself.
-
Do you reveal your good fishing lakes/spots?
I personally do not like when you share a spot with somebody and they tell the whole world about it.So now, I look at it differently, let them see the spot, sample it when fishing.Then let them go back and figure it out for themselves.So much of the time they come back and say they couldn't buy a bite.They still have-to figure out the bite for themselves.

Any updates on Istokpoga?
Try the Cow Pen/,,N28 10,06.0" W81 21, 35.3" GPS.If that doesn't work try South port Sling N28 08, 59.3" W81 21, 01.3" GPS. GOOD LUCK.I personally like fishing around Makinson Island t-rig-gin craws and top water frogs in the jitt.Paradise Island is good to.I love it when people have a hard time.Going behind them and picking up the left overs.It,s great when their hunting for the big bite, they just doesn,t stick around for the rest.There is a time to leave though.These are legitimate coradance.

So You Want To Go Pro
You should probably stick to tennis, because the only 4a-5a around is california and florida, plus lake elsalto. Time and effort you put in with knowledge.With that said what about those how lived on crackers and lunch meat, in their van.(JAPENIS angler).Moved place to place following the tourneys around, then finally one the event one year.And began fishing steadily there after.Im not shure if its toka amora.

structure?....i give up
On any time of the day,those structure fish could be tight during fronts, or just off the area you are fishing.Depth plays a fracture, and then again sunny days, could be just alike with different attitudes.Suspended up/down and or away from the cover.I personally love the depths below.Gratifying, yet Disappointing all the same.

New Video! Spinnerbaits
A Glenn, I be the new-by to the forum and like the video.But you had sad one key thing,that sparked a question.The 3/4 once was easier to throw in the wind and all, for practice,as well for a steady pick.My Question is Why use that huge Bladed thing When you could put yourself in targeting mid to large Fish.When simply downsize-in to 1/6 or 1/8once and learn to throw it in all conditions.I myself throw big baits preferred,but their are some that swear by the little stuff.Its easy to throw wait, but do it with a feather, training with something lighter.Then go to the big stuff,with greater accuracy presentation precision ext.

Most Underated Technique or Tackle?
Try putting a nail in an old monster 10incher plus.Tell me about that movwe, you,ll be surprized that the fish will tear it up, great for finicky fish that feel the sinker.
